Summer Wind, Beachfront with incredible views! 5 miles from Galveston sea wall!


There is bed space for 10 people. 8 or 9 adults is comfortable. We do allow up to 11, with one on the couch or on the spare mattress that is under the bed. This beachfront home has one of the best views of any home on the West End, yet close to the fun of downtown Galveston. Easy walk to Galveston State Park. Our beach has a private feeling and is very quiet (no cars are allowed to drive on beach thus no worries about the kids/dogs). Once you cross the bridge from the mainland you will find a unique experience. We feel like we are entering a different world when we visit our beachfront island home! This is a pet friendly home with a pet fee of $75 per pet.

COVID-19: The house is ideal for social distancing. The beach is not crowded, there is plenty of outdoor deck space, and I recently upgraded the HVAC with a media filter and a UV air treatment system. Our cleaning company disinfects all touch surfaces (light switches, door knobs, counter tops, etc). If at any time our beach is closed down, the city prohibits short term rentals, or there is a state wide lock-down and you are prevented from using your reservation I will return all money paid. Please stay healthy!

MISC: This home is set back, plenty of beach in front and only small dunes between you and the beach. Please note, the map illustration can make it appear there are lots in front of Summer Wind. If you use a satellite view you will see this is not the case. This is a front row, ocean front home!

Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony. Conveniences include a phone, as well as a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
This smoke-free vacation home features games, surfing/body boarding nearby, and hiking/biking trails nearby. Recreational activities include sailing nearby and windsurfing nearby.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

The view, the porches, and Johnnour host was most helpful!We do recommend another chair in the living room, maybe even replacing the giant ottomanAlso, there was a bit of a foul loader coming from the sink in the bathroom of the bedroom at the far south end of the houseThis being said we will definitely rent this place again and recommend it to anyone.

This place was beautiful. We were very pleasantly surprised by the closeness to the oceanfront. My only complaint about this rental are simple fixes. The water upstairs (3rd floor bathroom) did not work. The lock at the front door was difficult. I would suggest that be replaced. I alerted the owner and he was very responsive. We will absolutely be renting this place again.
